john_g_kearney Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Looking forward very much to this year's show - we came on both Saturday and Sunday last year just to see the T34 running... Is the Tour de France going to give any grief re the approach roads to the site do you think? John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happydayz123 Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Hi John, i very much doudt it, as both stage 1 & 2 are a fair distance away from the show. The only problem visiters may face, would be the M62 Motorway. There are several B roads to the site in any case. And yes where pleased to say the T34/85, will be attending again this year. Along with 45 other pieces of Armour !!! weve now recieved 371 military vehicle, and 70 Re-enacent Group bookings, which is incredible, considering this is only our 3rd year.

eddy8men Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 glad to hear there's going to be lots of American wartime armour but it's nice to have a real tank there this year :coffee: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean N Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Is the Tour de France going to give any grief re the approach roads to the site do you think? John. Stage 1 on the Saturday shouldn't interfere as I guess most exhibitors will be there by then, but if you're coming from North of Bradford the route goes Leeds - Ilkley - Skipton then up Wharfedale, so be aware. Stage 2 on the Sunday comes across the A59 and down from Ilkley to the West of Bradford via Keighley, Hebden Bridge and then to Sheffield. Anyone who is worried there's an interactive map of closures etc. at http://letour.yorkshire.com/travel/travel-information-map Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
